Hello everyone!
It is almost time for the retreat and some good ol’ family time! Here are a few things to expect while you are here:
Camp Brotherhood has many different recreational activities that your family can explore:
- Biking and hiking on our beautiful trails
- Basketball
- Soccer
- Volleyball
- Swimming
Things to mention:
- Note to Campers –there are only 3 community fire pits in the camping area. My husband is going to try to get a couple more going before Friday. We will point out to you on Friday where those are located. There is also another fire pit up in the Fire Circle close to the chapel. (will point out where that is too.) **Everyone will be given a map of the grounds.
- A note on the swimming, there is NO LIFEGUARD on duty, so a parent must be with your children at all times while swimming.
- Also, any of you who play instruments, please bring them. We have an Amphitheater down by the fields that you can use for some extra “spontaneous” worship time.
- Check-in time will be start at 5pm in the Warren Center. You will receive your room assignments and keys (if applicable), maps and welcome packets at the time of registration.
- We will be having a snack table and would love for you all to bring something to share. I can be something very simple like cheese and crackers, fruit, veggies, etc. This is a very helpful thing for us all to be able to partake of during and in between sessions.
Things to bring:
- Your own pillows and blankets (except Motel lodgers)
- Extra towels for the pool – we do have towels here for you to use, however there is a fee.
- Flashlights, umbrella, mosquito repellent, camera
- Personal items, toiletries, clothes, jackets, shoes, hiking boots, etc.
- Bible, paper/pencils or pens, highlighters, etc.
- Baby items: High chair/booster seat or a port-a-crib
- Water bottles
- Extra money for a love offering for the Campbells as well as money to buy some items at the Above Rubies book table.
